GOAE Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Probably for loitering efficiency due to the torque of the propeller I imagine. I believe it's slightly more efficient to orbit in the natural direction the propeller rolls and yaws the aircraft. But if the prop spins counterclockwise I'd think it'd be more efficient to bank right. Otherwise it's probably just operator or developer choice to try to stick to a particular direction for predictability.
